[UPDATE] Quirky Acuity 30/5/05 She's Back! or is she?

May 30th, but only just...

Violet's blog wrote:

Well. That was weird. You know how sometimes you can think you understand something, and suddenly everything swings round and it looks completely different? Like, one of those pictures which you think is a rabbit and then looks like a duck? Or, like your life, which you thought was all about one thing, turns out to be something else? Or... actually maybe I'm too tired to go into this right now.


They got her... knew it'd all go horribly wrong. Maybe we should give the Recon's the benefit of the doubt (coming from someone who's itunes was playing I found Jesus as I read :s), we only think they're a bit dodgy cos they've been painted that way thus far. Maybe Violet will show us a different side to them. Or then again, maybe she's been brainwashed!

rach =)

edit: whoops looks like someone else got there first, i'll do the self-trouting right away...

OK, worried. I've refreshed Quirky Acuity like 20 times and I don't see it. The last post I see is 27. Any else got this problem? Has this Recon thing got her to take it down? Take it down themselves? What's going on?

The link i put in the quote header shows you where the permalink was supposed to be http://www.quirkyacuity.com/archives/2005/05/back.html and isn't now...

very strange.

i think we've seen that error page before, but as an added, the mailto webmaster link goes to 'address not given' as well.

rach =)

Yep, it's gone, look at the supposed page:

Houston, we have . . . a problem.

This smells strongly of funny business, and the most likely suspects are the Recons.

I'm strongly considering emailing Dr. Kiteway and telling him the facts, and my suspicions - just in case he hasn't heard the news.

Granted, this may attract the Recon's attentions . . . but it's a risk I'm willing to take.

Should we percieve that the recon's are actually a cult? If you think about it.. we have no idea where Perplex City is.. it could be in the metaverse (virtual world within our pc's) for all we know.. and the Recons know this and have shown Violet.

Oh, I think it's definitely beginning to stink of cult, yup.

Macavity - I'd say email him. Soon enough he's going to be wondering where one of his daughters has gotten to and we should help him, maybe he can find her or... well, do something.

I emailed Scarlett to ask her if she's seen her sister since the visit, and to tell her that we're concerned about the post that got withdrawn on QuirkyAcuity.

Hah - good job I checked before submitting this. I was going to say "I take it someone has mentioned this to Scarlett? Am going to do so now." But will leave it now Smile

But anyway, very creepy! Hope Violet is okay...

OK, this might just be me, and in that case this is severly troutable, but whenever I try to go to her blog it takes me to a page headed eXe Active Media Group. Is this just me!?!

Also it seems whenever I try and go deeper by following a link to a particular entry, it diverts me here, despite how OOG this one looks.

Anyone got an opinion on this?

Doesn't happen for me. If I follow your link, I just get the normal QA site, with no mention of the exe-active site. But then again, maybe thats just me Smile Could it be IP based content?

I don't think so.

The weird thing is that it appears as you descibe it in a separate browser (RealOne Player). I dunno, maybe it is just my Firefox...

[EDIT: grr, even IE displays it properly.]

[2nd EDIT: Seems OK now. Weird though]
